SeaHorse_Fanatic's 2012 nano contest entry

[SeaHorse_Fanatic]

since everyone else has jumped in with both feet, I thought I should at least get my toes wet. Still not 100% decided yet, but I have a 2g Fluval Spec sitting on my desk for the last 2 months begging to be set up. Comes with a stock LED light, but its just white, so I will have to add a blue LED moonlight/actinic to turn it into a proper reef light.

With my busy schedule, this will have to be a low maintenance nano but being only 2 g, it'll be easy enough to take some water out and add some from one of my other bigger reef tanks. 30 second water changes, wooohoo.

I also plan to not spend almost anything on it, just "borrowing" stuff from my other reef tanks or from my huge store of excess equipment, sand, etc. I've accumulated over the last 10 years. The only purchase I foresee right now is a small piece of Tonga branching from my friend Franklin. Live rock will be fully cured so little to no cycle is expected.

Fish will be limited to baby captive breds. Coral frags and other livestock will also come from other tanks. I plan to have it completely stocked with aquacultured specimens, except maybe a Hawaiian feather duster.

I will post pics when I have more time.

Cheers,

Anthony
